Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.

That's.... quite a stark contrast in compensation....

Yup. I had at least one of my cards cancelled because of them.

I'll only use them if I absolutely have to, and I use paypal if I do.

Wait, Amazon is shipping the free TYH editions right now? A week early?

Come on man, I wish Atlus would just greenlight an early release, clearly retailers have the stock in hand :(

most likely due to the difference in lost preorders. Steelbooks editions were a readily available replacement anywhere, TYH editions were sold out, leaving those that lost their preorder a lot angrier than those that lost regular editions.

I love VGP and they're my local store here in Toronto. The guys working there are great too. Seems mind-boggling that they wouldn't fix this.

That's true. I checked to see if I could re-order and it was sold out.

A question, the people who are receiving free copies are Prime users? Or any user?

I used a Prime trial for the discount on the Take Your Heart edition. It was an international order though, so I would have still been required to pay postage had they have not cancelled it and then sent it to me for free.

It's awesome that Amazon is making it up for the people that had their orders canceled. Definitely jealous if people are getting their uncanceled orders shipped early.

My tracking is showing up as delivery by the end of Friday. Which is before the UK release date at least!

Mine's scheduled to arrive in Singapore tomorrow but UPS has missed their estimated delivery dates in the past.

I'm in the US, my order wasn't cancelled, my estimated ship date is 3/31 which would put it at my place on 4/2 with prime free 2 day shipping and Sunday delivery which my city does. I won't be surprised if my estimated ship date gets delayed to 4/2 and i get it on release date though.

My "Take Your Heart" order was never cancelled and still says expected to arrive April 4. Cool of Amazon to give free copies to those whose orders were incorrectly canceled.

My Take Your Heart edition on Amazon still can't cancelled. Even after the waves of BotW copies being cancelled I'm still fine. AMAZOOOOON.

Well that's an awesome thing to read! Some of y'alls gaming budget just got a lot less tight haha. Or maybe some money just goes back to savings, idk.

Thus far it's looking like everyone's doing their best to ensure this doesn't become too big a cluster * like Zelda Master's Edition and Switch Consoles. It's pretty assuring, but boy it'll be nice when the whole ride ends nonetheless.

Yay for Amazon giving free copies. I got my TYH from bb and now the Amazon premium 🙌😀

Edit: wait what Amazon is giving me back my TYH for free????

To me, it's more significant that these people are potentially getting their copies sent early by Amazon than them being free.

Likewise! Painful to see people grab early copies from mom and pop shops, but hey, what can you do... then Amazon does it too?! Ugh

I'm glad for those who got their orders back but I'm actually upset and jealous about this now.

I'm so petty!

The more I think about it, the more upset I become. It's cool of Amazon to do this. However, you have one group of people who preordered getting compensated $80 - 90 bucks whereas the other group get nothing.

$5 or $10 compensation wouldn't upset me but nearly $100? Yeah...it makes me feel left out and bummed. I'm complaining to Amazon. Not expecting much though.

Whoops sorry, I need to stop posting late at nightwhile I'm on medication. My estimated delivery date is actually Thursday 30th March. Won't believe it till I see it though. Shipping still hasn't updated.

Those of us who had canceled orders with no way to get it were in danger of getting nothing, plus the hours of phone and chat with customer service, plus dealing with getting the. Limited Edition another way from other sources... It was terrible.

You think people who didn't go through that should get a free copy too?
